What is the deadline in North Dakota?
North Dakota has a 6-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims under N.D.C.C. § 28-01-16, one of the longest in the nation. The discovery rule applies to toxic exposure injuries, providing substantial additional time for AFFF claimants. A lawyer can confirm yours.

Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.
02 · Where cases are heard
Where would my case be heard?
North Dakota has confirmed PFAS contamination at Grand Forks Air Force Base and Minot Air Force Base, both of which have used AFFF in fire training operations for decades. The proximity of these bases to the Red River and Souris River watersheds raises concerns about broader water contamination beyond immediate base perimeters.
